Guiltyxz

Hey, another one of my friends is looking to get a gaming PC. They have a £1000 ($1300) budget. Im tryna decide between 2 pcs:

 

PC 1:

Costs £900 + £15 shipping

CPU: Ryzen 5 2600

MoBo: ASRock B450M Pro4

32gb Corsair Vengance LPX - I havent asked what speed it is

GPU: ASUS RTX 3070 DUAL OC 8GB

128GB SSD & 1TB Seagate HDD

 

PC 2:

Costs £1000 + collection only 90 miles away

CPU: Ryzen 7 2700X

16GB RAM

GPU: Radeon RX 6700 XT

128GB SSD hard drive & 2x 1TB HDD hard drive

Comes with a Razer keyboard, Logitech Mouse and a 32” curved monitor 144hz

 

I think the 2nd one is better value because of the included monitor, but I thought id ask yalls opinion 

PC: Ryzen 7 2700 | RX 5700 XT | Asus Prime B450-PLUS | CoolerMaster Masterwatt 600W | 32GB Corsair Vengeance 3200MHz RAM | 512GB NVME SSD & 7TB combined HDD | macOS Monterey 12.6.6, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and WIndows 10 Pro x64

I like PC #2

RAM and such is an easy upgrade, the other specs, and the the monitor more than make up for the price difference.

However, if the monitor is 1440p I am unsure about the 6700xt ability to hit 144hz consistently. if it has freesync that's not a problem though.
